Savory Herb Rice

No more boxed rice mix! Make this tasty side dish using ingredients you already have on hand, which allows you to control the flavors and the sodium content. I've found that this recipe works well with both chicken and fish, but you can easily substitute different broths such as beef or vegetable, and different herbs to complement any main dish.
